Notes:
This game was also produced as Bally Midway's 1986 'Karate Fight'. Artist Greg Freres had to change the name on the backglass from Black Belt to Karate Fight at the request of a European distributor. We do not know if this became a permanent change in the production run, or was only a backglass substitution occurring before games designated for export went out the door. Freres does not recall the distributor's specific reason for the name change or how it actually affected the Black Belt production run, and offers the possibility that all games shipped as Black Belt and then Bally shipped the new glasses later.

Notes:
Game has two different plastic artwork versions for the upper playfield: "futuristic" style" and "stone castle" style. These differing plastics appear around the lock assembly, near the "W.A.R" lanes, as the upper ramp cover, and as the "magna-save ready" sign. Reportedly, the "futuristic" artwork may be the earlier design.

Music by: Chris Granner

Software by: Bill Pfutzenreuter
Notes:
Williams began using System 11B during the production of "Big Guns", so this game can have either an 11A or 11B system board.
Mark Ritchie stated at the Chicago Expo 2012 that the backbox was made larger by 4 inches because artist Python Anghelo needed more room to build the castle! He also said the King was to be Steve Ritchie, who did the voice for that role.
